Jackson was claimed through waivers by the Texans, according to the league\u2019s transaction wire. The defensive back was waived by Denver after he served a second supension in the 2023 season for an illegal hit, on Minnesota Vikings quarterback Joshua Dobbs in the Broncos\u2019 comeback victory over Minnesota in Week 11. He was a healthy scratch in Denver\u2019s Christmas Eve loss to New England and with his roster exemption expiring, the Broncos was left with the option of activating him to their 53-man roster, or release him. They chose the first option, sending Kareem to waivers, where the Texans scooped him up. Jackson started his career at Houston, who chose him with the 20th overall pick of the 2010 draft out of Alabama. He played alongside Texans coach DeMeco Ryans in Houston for two seasons before Ryans went to Philadelphia in 2012. Jackson followed Ryans out of Texas in 2019, entering in the opposite direction of his ex-teammate to Denver, where he played in 69 matches for the Broncos from 2019-2023. Kareem Jackson will return to where his NFL journey began this week, to join a Texans that has surprised the football world with a shocking turnaround in their first season under Ryans\u2019 guidance.
